Today’s woman is a marvel. She does more homemaking jobs than ever before, yet devotes more time to community and family affairs. She has learned to make full use of versatile electricity. It helps so much with so many chores. And the average price per kilowatt-hour is the lowest in history. Electricity does major jobs efficiently: jobs like cooking, heating water, keeping room temperatures just right in summer and winter. It does little jobs so easily that she can almost forget them. There isn’t a better — or cleaner — way to cook, cool, or heat than with flameless electricity. Check your list of electric servants. If it’s time to reorganize your staff, call our home economists. They’re glad to assist all home-style executives. And their help is free.
